"Democracy is cancerous, and bureaus are its cancer. A bureau takes root anywhere in the state, turns malignant like the Narcotic Bureau, and grows and grows, always reproducing more of its own kind, until it chokes the host if not controlled or excised. Bureaus cannot live without a host, being true parasitic organisms. (A cooperative on the other hand can live without the state. That is the road to follow. The building up of independent units to meet the needs of the people who participate in the functioning of the unit. A bureau operates on opposite principle of inventing needs to justify its existence.) Bureaucracy is wrong as a cancer, a turning away from the human evolutionary direction of infinite potentials and differentiation and independent spontaneous action, to complete parasitism of a virus.
It is thought that the virus is a degeneration from more complex life form. It may at one time have been capable of independent life. Now has fallen to the borderline between living and dead matter. It can exhibit living qualities only in a host, by using the life of another -- the renunciation of life itself, a falling towards inorganic, inflexible machine, towards dead matter. Bureaus die when the structure of the state collapses. They are as helpless and unfit for independent existences as a displaced tapeworm, or a virus that has killed the host."

Och ja, jag har blivit inspirerad av det kommande besöket från hälsovårdsbyrån och den skräck det har injagat i mina arbetskamrater, egentligen är det meningen att byråns kontrollant ska kolla att kontrollanten som kontrollerar våra chefers kontroll sköter sitt jobb och håller koll. Men vi städare vet bättre än dom flesta att skiten rinner ner till bottnen (rakt ner i vår nacke), så vi ökar vår självkontroll och överdriver vår passion för skitkontroll tills det är över.
